Drivers in the market for a powerful, comfortable, and safe heavy-duty pickup truck will be hard-pressed to find a better fit than the 2024 RAM 1500! Here are just a few of our favorite things about this workhorse of a vehicle!

Five Things to Love About the 2024 RAM 1500

1. Power and Performance

The 2024 1500 base model comes equipped with a standard 3.6L V6 24V VVT eTorque engine and engine start/stop (ESS) technology, which provides you with a powerful driving experience without sacrificing on fuel economy. Drivers in need of a more powerful ride may be interested in the available 5.7L V8 HEMI MDS VVT eTorque engine, also with ESS, which provides for greater horsepower and torque for heavier-duty jobs.

2. Towing and Payload Capacities

The 1500 base model sports an incredible maximum towing capacity of 7,760 pounds and payload capacity of 2,320 pounds when properly equipped. These capacities are competitive for vehicles in its class, and many drivers will find this works perfectly for their day-to-day hauling needs. Should you need even greater towing power, selecting higher trims and engine options can provide up to 12,750 pounds of maximum towing capacity.

3. Comfort and Convenience

Your next truck’s standard passenger volume of 117 cu.ft. is large for a vehicle in its class, providing plenty of room for you and your passengers to feel as comfortable as possible. We also love the standard Ram Clean Air System, which keeps your cabin air fresh by filtering 95% of air particulates. Perfect for when it’s just too hot to crack a window!

4. Connected and Entertained

The base model comes equipped with an easy-to-use infotainment system powered by the intuitive Uconnect 3 interface and centered around a 5-inch touch screen display. You are sure to love the convenience of Integrated Voice Command, a standard feature that allows you to use voice-activated commands to do everything from controlling your music to making phone calls.

5. Safety Highlights and Features

The 1500 includes several standard safety features we love, including its comprehensive airbag system, electronic stability control with anti-rollover, and ABS and driveline traction control, which work to enhance your safety and stability on the road. Available safety features that can provide you with even more peace of mind include Full-Speed Forward-Collision Warning Plus, Lane Keep Assist, and Blind-Spot and Cross-Path Detection.
